Un professore universitario viene trovato ucciso nel suo ufficio. Uno studente musulmano in odore di terrorismo confessa il crimine ed Γ¨ arrestato. Ma le cose non sono semplici come sembrano. Qualcuno ha infatti torturato il giovane Ahmad per costringerlo a confessare l'omicidio. Manny Goldfarb, il miglior penalista della cittΓ , decide di difenderlo e ingaggia come investigatore privato il suo vecchio amico Carl van Wagener, un ex poliziotto uscito dal tunnel dell'alcol grazie alla fede ritrovata e all'aiuto della Cattedrale del Terzo Millennio, una potente congregazione evangelica. Intanto la vedova del professore ucciso rivela che il marito stava scrivendo un libro in cui si negava l'esistenza di Dio: un manoscritto scottante che ora sembra svanito nel nulla. A mano a mano che Carl si addentra nel caso, le sue certezze verranno scardinate una dopo l'altra. In un'indagine in cui si troverΓ a rischiare non solo la sua vita ma anche la sua fede e, forse, perfino la sua anima...
